“…The role of individual family members in affecting children's health is obviously very important. For example, studies indicate that mothers play a pivotal role in determining the health of their children, as discussed in studies reviewed above and others (Alpert, Kosa, & Haggerty, 1967;Carpenter, 1980;Morris, Hatch, & Chipman, 1966). This includes such behaviors as their decision making as to use of health services, escorting children to physicians, and in providing home nursing for ill children.…”

An overview and synthesis of the literature documenting various influences on the socialization and acquisition of children's health attitudes and behavior is the focus of this review. Cognitive-developmental approaches to understanding children's health attitudes are presented, followed by an exploration of an individual differences perspective on children's acquisition of health attitudes and behavior. The influence of various socialization agents, including families, peers, schools, and the media, on children's acquisition of health attitudes and behavior is considered. Implications of these findings for social policy, future research, and modeling of child health attitudes and behavior are examined.

A comprehensive pediatric care program was offered to a sample of urban poor families, with special attention being paid those families who had indicated that they would be "hard to reach" or who had a specific social problem. The majority of families approached readily accepted this offer of medical care. With considerable further effort 75% of the hard-to-reach families could be brought into the program. The presence of a specific social problem, illegitimacy, while not precluding a family's being enrolled, did decrease participation and require more effort. Residential mobility and family disorganization were the major handicaps encountered. Race, mother's education, and children's age also influenced the outcome. These efforts, while rewarding, entailed considerable time and expense; whether this is worthwhile depends on the demonstration of actual benefits of comprehensive care to the families.
